Hello Devforum, as the title implies I want to make it so while the player holds a key I made an inspect item system;
as you see when fully moving my mouse left it will eventually run out of screen space I want it so I can somehow try to lock the mouse or find a way to make the mouse not run out of space is this possible?
Try something like this:
local UserInputService = game:GetService("UserInputService")
local RunService = game:GetService("RunService")
local keyPressed = false
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
keyPressed = true
UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCurrentPosition
repeat RunService.RenderStepped:Wait() until not keyPressed
UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
end
end)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
keyPressed = false
end
end)
There’s no need for the repeat wait which is inefficient, just lock their camera on input began and unlock it on input ended with no extra bool
UserInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCurrentPosition
end
end)
UserInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
UserInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
end
end)

I am confused on what this script is accomplishing? I want to attempt to freeze the player mouse. If its possible in anyway I just need it to stay in the same spot while the player is holding down space to rotate the object.
I think that is what the scripts do. Lock the player’s mouse. Do you still need help with this?
They didn’t work for me but maybe I am confused about their implementation.
Here is my code with the code provided above;
local function Item_Rotate(input, gpe)
local function inspect_Rotate()
runService.RenderStepped:Connect(function()--Runs every frame to rotate the object
if not inspectingRotationCheck then
if rotCheck then--A debounce I forgot what it does
playerGui.FakeMouse.Enabled = false --Sets mouse invisible to make it look nice
local CurrentMousePos = Vector2.new(mouse.X,mouse.Y)--Gets the mouse position
local change = (CurrentMousePos - LastMousePos) / 6.9--Gets the change
tempSelectedModel:SetPrimaryPartCFrame(tempSelectedModel:GetPrimaryPartCFrame() * CFrame.Angles(0, math.rad(change.X), 0) * CFrame.Angles(math.rad(change.Y), 0, 0))--Runs some math to rotate the object
LastMousePos = CurrentMousePos--Sets the lastMousePos to the current so it can keep rotating
tempSelectedModel.PrimaryPart.Orientation = Vector3.new(0, 0, 0)
return LastMousePos
elseif not rotCheck then
playerGui.FakeMouse.Enabled = true--Makes the mouse visible again
end
else
playerGui.FakeMouse.Enabled = true
end
end)
end
local keyPressed = false
userInputService.InputBegan:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
userInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCurrentPosition
end
end)
userInputService.InputEnded:Connect(function(input,gameProcessed)
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
userInputService.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
end
end)
end
userInputService.InputBegan:Connect(Item_Rotate)
I feel like I dont understand the implementation of their code to freeze the mouse.
My goal is to have when the user holds space and moves their mouse it will rotate the item I want to then freeze the mouse while they are holding space and moving their mouse.
Their code uses UserInputService to check for any starting and ending inputs and locks the mouse down when it’s pressed down, however if you want to make it lock the mouse when the SPACE key is pressed then you need to change
if input.UserInputType == Enum.UserInputType.MouseButton1 then
to
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Space then
in both segments
If you are still confused on how it works, you can take a look at the UserInputService API and its events
Im sorry I understood this it this works although it wont work for the other parts of my script so I can not use it but I understand how this works now thank you!
Paste this as localscript in StarterPlayerScrpits. This should work:
--Copy and paste into starter player scripts
local UIS = game:GetService("UserInputService")
--Camera module services
local cameraModule = script.Parent:WaitForChild("PlayerModule"):WaitForChild("CameraModule")
local CameraUtils = require(cameraModule:WaitForChild("CameraUtils"))
local BaseCamera = require(cameraModule:WaitForChild("BaseCamera"))
local CameraUI = require(cameraModule:WaitForChild("CameraUI"))
local CameraInput = require(cameraModule:WaitForChild("CameraInput"))
local CameraToggleStateController = require(cameraModule:WaitForChild("CameraToggleStateController"))
local UserGameSettings = UserSettings():GetService("UserGameSettings")
local MouseLocked = true
local mouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
UIS.InputBegan:Connect(function(input, gameProcessed)
if gameProcessed then return end --exit function if they are typing
if input.KeyCode == Enum.KeyCode.Q then
MouseLocked = not MouseLocked --turn mouselocked to true if false, false if true
if MouseLocked then --if true then lock mouse
mouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
UIS.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.LockCenter
else
mouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
UIS.MouseBehavior = Enum.MouseBehavior.Default
end
end
end)
local debounce = false
function BaseCamera:UpdateMouseBehavior()
local blockToggleDueToClickToMove = UserGameSettings.ComputerMovementMode == Enum.ComputerMovementMode.ClickToMove
if self.isCameraToggle and blockToggleDueToClickToMove == false then
CameraUI.setCameraModeToastEnabled(true)
CameraInput.enableCameraToggleInput()
CameraToggleStateController(self.inFirstPerson)
else
CameraUI.setCameraModeToastEnabled(false)
CameraInput.disableCameraToggleInput()
-- first time transition to first person mode or mouse-locked third person
if self.inFirstPerson or self.inMouseLockedMode then
CameraUtils.setRotationTypeOverride(Enum.RotationType.CameraRelative)
if not debounce then
debounce = true
CameraUtils.setMouseBehaviorOverride(mouseBehavior)
end
else
debounce = false
CameraUtils.restoreRotationType()
CameraUtils.restoreMouseBehavior()
end
end
end
